                      CONGRATULATING CHASE STIGALL

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. MIKE PENCE

                               of indiana

                    in the house of representatives

                         Friday, April 8, 2011

  Mr. PENCE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Chase Stigall 
and the rest of the Butler University men's basketball team. America 
watched as the Bulldogs demonstrated hard work and personal sacrifice 
throughout the NCAA tournament and achieved what many said was 
impossible. The Dawgs epitomize what the word ``team'' is all about, 
and although they did not take home the trophy, they made their state 
and Bulldog fans across the nation extremely proud. As Andrew Carnegie 
said, ``teamwork is the fuel that allows common people to obtain 
uncommon results.''
  I am proud to say that many of the Bulldog players hail from my 
district. One such young man is Chase Stegall. He was a star player at 
Chrysler High School in New Castle, and he helped lead his team to 
victory in the Indiana Class 3A state championship. There is no doubt 
that his talent also helped advance the Dawgs to the final game of the 
NCAA tournament. I echo the pride of Hoosiers across the state on 
Butler's strong performance. And I especially congratulate Chase for 
his leadership and strength of character throughout the tournament.
